Summary: | A stator assembly (60) of a gas turbine engine according to an example of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a first shroud (62) that extends about an axis (X) to bound a flow path (FP). The first shroud (62) defines a first shroud opening (68). An airfoil (66) has an airfoil body (66A) that extends from a first end portion (66B). The first end portion (66B) is received in the first shroud opening (68) and defines a pair of airfoil openings (66D). At least one retention clip (72) has an intermediate portion (72A) connecting a pair of elongated leg portions (72B). The pair of elongated leg portions (72B) are received in the pair of airfoil openings (66D) such that the at least one retention clip (72) limits movement of the airfoil (66) relative to the first shroud (62). A method of assembling a stator assembly (60) is also disclosed. |
